The relationship between the decay constant (λ) and the half-life (t1⁄2) is given by the equation t(1/2) = 0.693/λ. Use the equa

tion for N to derive this relationship.
Hint: when t = t(1/2), N/No = 0.5 (1 point)

Which electromagnetic waves have the shortest wavelengths and highest frequencies?
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer: Gamma rays

Explanation: The given waves belong to the electromagnetic spectrum which consists of different electromagnetic radiations arranged in terms of increasing wavelengths or decreasing frequencies.

E= h\times \nu

\nu=\frac{c}{\lambda}

Thus E=\frac{h\times c}{\lambda}

E= energy

\nu= frequency

c = speed of light

\lambda = wavelength

Thus frequency and wavelength are inversely related. The waves having high energies ave high frequencies and have shorter wavelengths.

Thus gamma rays having highest energy have highest frequency and shortest wavelength.

A 100-n force has a horizontal component of 80 n and a vertical component of 60 n. the force is applied to a box which rests on
iragen [17]
<span>160 Joules

   For this problem, we can ignore the vertical component of the applied force and focus on only the horizontal component of 80 N and since work is defined as force over distance, let's multiply the force by the distance: 80 N * 2.0 m = 160 Nm = 160 kg*m^2/s^2 = 160 Joules.

   So the cart has a final kinetic energy of 160 Joules.</span>
